The Great Pacific Lines.

The inquiry into the working and financial
management of the Pacific railways that
have received from the government aid In
bonds is now well under way before the
commission appointed by President Cleye-
land. The first two days have been spent in
the examination of c. p. Huntington, the
railway king Of the west, and vice president
of the Central Pacific before it was leased to
the Union Pacific, and Mr.. Charles Francis
Adams, now president of the whole Union
Pacific system The magnitude of the work
which Ex-Governor Pattison and his fellow
commissioners have been appointed to do by
President Cleveland may be realized by con-
sidering some facts in relation to the Union
Pacific system which were brought out IN
President Adams's testimony. The Union
Pacific and Central Pacific made up the first
| all rail line from Omaha across the plains to
| San Francisco. Now, by q lease of the Cen
trail Pacific to the Union Pacific and by the
| ACQUISITION of tributary lines, the Union Pa
| cific has become corporation of tremendous
| influence and great wealth. In taxes alone
| it pays out in the course OF year more than
million dollars President Adams's testi-
mony has dealt chiefly with the resources
and prospects of the road; he knows moth
ing of any wrong doing on the part of any OF
the directors or officers of the road But
the testimony of c. p Huntington was much
more sensational. His memory was defec-
tive on some points on which the Commits
sion were anxious to satisfy themselves, but
of the transactions of Central Pacific attor-
neys in Washington in former years Mr.
Huntington furnished some very precise in.
formation. General Franchot had salary
of twenty thousand dollars year for looking
after the roads interests at the capital
Large sums of money were paid over t.
Franchot besides his salary, and for thes'
sums no vouchers were taken by Hunting
ton. To Sheriff., who succeeded Franchot
a salary of ten thousand only was paid, Blu
moneys were paid over to him also withou
vouchers. Huntington said that sometime
these untouched for sums amounted to tw
: hundred thousands dollars yearly. Some
, times five shousand dollars were paid owe
at time. What such sums were used fC
Huntington does not know exactly. 81
4 says it was to influence legislation. Son
e may have gone to purchase the aid of otht
s attorneys, some perhaps for champagne an
Q cigars but Mr.. Huntington repudiates tt
d idea that this money was used improperl.
d that is for direct bribery.

DIR. William Everett, Of the late Mugwump
party of blessed memory, which did not die
but was translated alive to the paradise of
the Democratic party, has taken occasion to
speak again of Mr.. Cleveland and civil SER
vice reform. OF the great reform Mr. Ever
EFT speaks as enthusiastically as ever; but in
his enumeration of the Presidents services to
the reform, it does not take lively fancy TO
detect spirit Of sadness beneath the studied
commentator. sit is not my intention" he
says, ITO defend all the Presidents appoint
ments-he has made some very bad ones
but neither do | see any use in apologizing
for them and talking great deal about his
mistakes" And Mr.. Everett, thus happily
Kidding himself Of the task of apOlogizing for
the Presidents short comngs as civil SER
vice reformer, proceeds to enumerate his vir-
tues as such; and at the end he says: II
nave Intentionally stated the Presidents SER
vices to our cause in what seems to me mod
crate terms; | believe myself he is emphati-
caily our friend in heart, word and action; |
pelieVe he Is our breakwater against the re-
turning Hood tide Of the spoils system. But
II any one thinks otherwise / shall not dis
putei the facts are no more accessible 10 me
than to all" IT is gratifying to see that the
Mugwump has grown less confident and
The Portland daily press., 1887-04-30

more tolerant since he became Democrat.
He admits that an opinion of the Presidents
services may depend somewhat upon the
facts relating to those services. And he is
doubtless aware that in a State like Massa-
chusetts or New York, where the Mugwump
vote is likely to be of some account, the poll
cy of the administration is very different
from its policy in Bourbon States like Indi-
ana or Georgia or Missouri. In Maine, where
the small postofiices may be distributed to
the small workers without regard to civil
service reform princi ples, because the Demo-
cratic party of Maine has nothing to lose by
sacrifice of principle, Mr.. Everett was
wise in not attempting to defend or excuse
the Presidents performances

we do with them? Where shall we
stow them? We won't do either.
We will sell the bulk of these Satines
for 10 cents yard, until the mass is
reduced to Portland dimensions.

Discussion of the prohibition movement in
Iexas brings out the fact that the rising
generation in the Lone Star State has more
schooling than in New Hampshire. The
average length of school in the latter State
mas OIL late years been less than twenty
weeks, the smallest amount of any Northern
State except Oregon. Only nine States in
IN the Union have less than the Granite
State For this state of things the district
school system has been largely responsible.
by multiplying the number of schools far
beyond the number needed, and dividing nm
the school money into such small sums that
they could be run few weeks. The Con-
cord Monitor says that the abolition of the
District system by the last Legislature has
wrought wholesome change, and now the
schools are fewer but longer and better.
Had Maine followed the example of her
neighbor undoubtedly her schools would
have been as favorably affected.

and the two parties are playing battledore
and shuttleccck with it. 1t is enough TO
condemn any proposition in the minds of

upon with some degree of favor by the

the Globe, Mr.. Edward Blake's paper. pro-
ceeded to assail it in most vigorous manner,
pronouncing it an ''abjeet surrender" and
eharacterizing its authors as conspirators
against Canada. Now the same perform
ance is going on at Halifax The Her
aid having sanctioned the proposition as
temporary expedient the Chronicle yigor-

fayors it. We venture to say, that if the

The Democratic majority of one hundred

hearts Of the Texas Democrats in 1886, is
likely to be Whitfield down this year. The
Prohibitionists, under the lead of Reagan and
Maxey, and the ''Antis," who are marshaled
by other Democratic chiefs equally conspic-
